Gothenburg may not yet be a famous expat destination. However, the archipelago, the delicious sea-food and the cultural relevance are just some of the many reasons that make a move to Gothenburg interesting for expats-to-be. Find out more about the city, climate and more in this guide.

The second-largest Swedish city, Gothenburg is still not a noisy metropolis: the city is livable and tight-knit, right at the sea and with a quaint archipelago to visit. Moreover, life in Gothenburg comes with excellent services, from a great public education system to comprehensive healthcare.

As many other port cities, Gothenburg is an important transportation hub for the whole of Scandinavia, with a local economy that is not only international and appealing for expats, but also extremely profitable and flourishing. In this guide, we introduce you to this economy, income taxation and more.
